英语作文青少年肥胖Teenage Obesity。
Obesity has become a major health concern worldwide,and teenagers are not immune to this problem. In fact, teenage obesity is on the rise, and it is a cause for concern. According to the World Health Organization, the number of overweight and obese children and adolescents has increased tenfold over the past four decades.There are several factors that contribute to teenage obesity. One of the main causes is a sedentary lifestyle. Teenagers today spend more time sitting in front of screens, whether it's watching TV, playing video games, or usingtheir smartphones. This lack of physical activity can leadto weight gain and other health problems.Another factor that contributes to teenage obesity is poor eating habits. Many teenagers consume high-calorie,low-nutrient foods, such as fast food, sugary drinks, andsnacks. These foods are often cheap and convenient, but they are not good for their health. A diet that is high in calories and low in nutrients can lead to weight gain and other health problems.Genetics also play a role in teenage obesity. Some teenagers may be predisposed to gaining weight due to their genes. However, genetics alone cannot explain the rise in teenage obesity. Environmental factors, such as a lack of physical activity and poor eating habits, are also important factors.The consequences of teenage obesity can be serious. Overweight and obese teenagers are at a higher risk of developing health problems such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease. They may also experience psychological problems, such as low self-esteem and depression. In addition, they may face social stigma and discrimination due to their weight.Preventing teenage obesity requires a multi-faceted approach. Parents, schools, and communities all have a roleto play in promoting healthy lifestyles. Parents can encourage their children to be physically active and provide them with healthy food choices. Schools can provide opportunities for physical activity and offer healthy meal options. Communities can create safe and accessible spaces for physical activity, such as parks and bike paths.In conclusion, teenage obesity is a serious health concern that requires attention and action. By promoting healthy lifestyles and making changes in our environment, we can help prevent teenage obesity and improve the health of our youth.。
儿童肥胖作文英文Childhood obesity is a growing problem in many countries. It's important for parents to encourage their children to eat healthy and stay active. 。
One reason for childhood obesity is the availability of fast food and sugary snacks. These foods are often high in calories and low in nutrients, leading to weight gain.In addition to unhealthy eating habits, many children today spend a lot of time sitting in front of screens. Whether it's watching TV, playing video games, or using smartphones, sedentary activities can contribute to weight gain.Another factor that contributes to childhood obesity is the lack of physical education in schools. Many schools have cut back on PE classes, leaving students with fewer opportunities to be active during the school day.Parents can help prevent childhood obesity by providing healthy meals and snacks at home. They can also encourage their children to participate in sports or other physical activities.It's important for children to understand the importance of a healthy lifestyle. By teaching them about nutrition and the benefits of exercise, parents can help their children make healthy choices.。

The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for them to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruff’s granddaughter.Why did they go then? Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they realized what they had undertaken.They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in themorning. Some mornings, Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.In Wickenden’s book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which of course influenced the girls’ decision to go to Elkhead. A hairraising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed (牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy’s return to Auburn.Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism (坚忍) of the people move her to some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse, looking down from a hill top: “When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all around them. Then a full moon rose. The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter.”24. Why did Dorothy and Rosamond go to the Rocky Mountains?A. To teach in a school.B. To study American history.C. To write a book.D. To do sightseeing.25. What can we learn about the girls from paragraph 3?A. They enjoyed much respect.B. They had a room with a bathtub.C. They lived with the local kids.D. They suffered severe hardships.26. Which part of Wickenden’s writing is hairraising?A. The extreme climate of Auburn.B. The living conditions in Elkhead.C. The railroad building in the Rockies.D. The natural beauty of the West.27. What is the text?A. A news report.B. A book review.C. A children’s story.D. A diary entry.CCan a small group of drones (无人机) guarantee the safety and reliability of railways and, at the same time, help railway operators save billions of euros each year? That is the very likely future of applying today’s “eyes in the sky” technology to making sure that the millions of kilometres of rail tracks and infrastructure (基础设施) worldwide are safe for trains on a 24/7 basis.Drones are already being used to examine hightension electrical lines. They could do precisely the same thing to inspect railway lines and other vital aspects of rail infrastructure such as the correct position of railway tracks and switching points. The more regularly they can be inspected, the more railway safety, reliability and ontime performance will be improved. Costs would be cut and operations would be more efficient (高效) across the board.That includes huge savings in maintenance costs and better protection of railway personnel safety. It is calculated that European railways alone spend approximately 20 billion euros a year on maintenance, including sending maintenance staff, often at night, to inspect and repair the rail infrastructure. That can be dangerous work that could be avoided with drones assisting the crews’ efforts.By using the latest technologies, drones could also start providing highervalue services for railways, detecting faults in the rail or switches, before they can cause any safety problems. To perform these tasks, drones for rail don’t need to be flying overhead. Engineers are now working on a new concept: the rail drones of the future. They will be moving on the track ahead of the train, and programmed to run autonomously. Very small drones with advanced sensors and AI and travelling ahead of the train could guide it like a copilot. With their ability to see ahead, they could signal any problem, so that fastmoving trains would be able to react in time.28. What makes the application of drones to rail lines possible?A. The use of drones in checking on power lines.B. Drones’ ability to work at high altitudes.C. The reduction of cost in designing drones.D. Drones’ reliable performance in remote areas.29. What does “maintenance” underlined in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Personnel safety.B. Assistance from drones.C. Inspection and repair.D. Construction of infrastructure.30. What function is expected of the rail drones?A. To provide early warning.B. To make trains run automatically.C. To earn profits for the crews.D. To accelerate transportation.31. Which is the most suitable title for the text?A. What Faults Can Be Detected with DronesB. How Production of Drones Can Be ExpandedC. What Difficulty Drone Development Will FaceD. How Drones Will Change the Future of RailwaysDThe Government’s sugar tax on soft drinks has brought in half as much money as Minister first predicted it would generate, the first official data on the policy has shown.First announced in April, 2016, the tax which applies to soft drinks containing more than 5g of sugar per 100ml, was introduced to help reduce childhood obesity (肥胖). It is believed that today’s children and teenagers are consuming three times the recommended level of sugar, putting them at a higher risk of the disease.Initially the sugar tax was expected to make £520m a year for the Treasury. However, data of the first six months showed it would make less than half this amount. Atpresent it is expected to generate £240m for the year ending in April 2019, which will go to school sports.It comes after more than half of soft drinks sold in shops have had their sugar levels cut by manufacturers (制造商) so they can avoid paying the tax. Drinks now contain 45 million fewer kilos of sugar as a result of manufacturers’ efforts to avoid the charge, according to Treasury figures. Since April drinks companies have been forced to pay between 18p and 24p for every litre of sugary drink they produce or import, depending on the sugar content.However, some high sugar brands, like Classic Coca Cola, have accepted the sugar tax and are refusing to change for fear of upsetting consumers. Fruit juices, milkbased drinks and most alcoholic drinks are free of the tax, as are small companies manufacturing fewer than 1m litres per year.Today’s figures, according to one government official, show the positive influence the sugar tax is having by raising millions of pounds for sports facilities (设施) and healthier eating in schools. Helping the next generation to have a healthy and active childhood is of great importance, and the industry is playing its part.32. Why was the sugar tax introduced?A. To collect money for schools.B. To improve the quality of drinks.C. To protect children’s health.D. To encourage research in education.33. How did some drinks companies respond to the sugar tax?A. They turned to overseas markets.B. They raised the prices of their products.C. They cut down on their production.D. They reduced their products’ sugar content.34. From which of the following is the sugar tax collected?A. Most alcoholic drinks.B. Milkbased drinks.C. Fruit juices.D. Classic Coke.35. What can be inferred about the adoption of the sugar tax policy?A. It is a shortsighted decision.B. It is a success story.C. It benefits manufacturers.D. It upsets customers.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

英语作文儿童肥胖的原因和解决方法Childhood obesity is becoming a big concern in our society. There are many reasons why kids are gaining too much weight these days. For instance, one reason is the unhealthy snacks and fast food that are easily accessible. Kids love the taste of these foods, but they're loaded with sugar and fats, which can cause weight gain over time. Plus, these foods often lack nutrients that are important for growing bodies.Another factor is the lack of physical activity. Nowadays, kids spend a lot of time playing video games or watching TV instead of going outside and playing sports or just being active. This sedentary lifestyle leads to fewer calories burned, which can contribute to weight gain.To tackle this issue, parents and schools need to work together. One solution is to provide healthy food optionsat home and in school cafeterias. Fruits, vegetables, and whole grains should be the mainstay of meals, while sugarydrinks and processed snacks should be limited.Encouraging kids to be more active is also crucial. Parents can set aside time each day for outdoor play or sports activities. Schools can offer more physical education classes and recess time to give kids a chance to run, jump, and play.Lastly, we need to educate kids about the importance of a healthy lifestyle. They should understand that eating right and staying active not only helps them look good, but also feels good. Teaching them these lessons early on can make a lasting impact on their overall well-being.。
儿童肥胖英文作文考研英文:Childhood obesity has become a serious problem in recent years. As a child, I struggled with my weight and understand the challenges that come with being overweight. There are several factors that contribute to this issue, including poor diet, lack of exercise, and genetics.One of the main causes of childhood obesity is a poor diet. Many children consume high amounts of processed foods and sugary drinks, which are high in calories and low in nutrients. This can lead to weight gain and other health problems such as diabetes and heart disease.Another factor is lack of exercise. With the rise of technology, children are spending more time in front of screens and less time being physically active. This sedentary lifestyle can also contribute to weight gain and other health issues.Lastly, genetics can play a role in childhood obesity.

关于儿童肥胖建议的英语作文Childhood obesity is a growing global health concern that requires immediate attention and action. The prevalence of overweight and obese children has risen dramatically in recent decades, posing significant risks to their physical, mental, and social well-being. As a complex issue influenced by a multitude of factors, addressing childhood obesity requires a comprehensive approach involving various stakeholders, including parents, schools, healthcare providers, and policymakers.One of the primary contributors to childhood obesity is the sedentary lifestyle that many children have adopted. With the increasing reliance on technology and the abundance of screen-based activities, children are spending more time engaged in passive pursuits, such as watching television, playing video games, and using smartphones and tablets. This reduction in physical activity, coupled with the easy accessibility of unhealthy snacks and sugary beverages, has led to an energy imbalance, where caloric intake exceeds energy expenditure, resulting in weight gain.To combat this issue, it is crucial to encourage and promote physical activity among children. Schools can play a vital role in this regard by ensuring that physical education classes are a mandatory part of the curriculum and by providing opportunities for children to engage in various sports and recreational activities throughout the day. Additionally, parents can set a positive example by incorporating physical activity into their family's daily routine, such as taking regular walks, going on bike rides, or participating in outdoor activities together.Another significant factor contributing to childhood obesity is the prevalence of unhealthy dietary habits. Many children have easy access to calorie-dense, nutrient-poor foods, such as fast food, processed snacks, and sugary drinks. These foods are often high in fat, sugar, and calories, but low in essential nutrients, leading to weight gain and other health problems. To address this, parents and schools must work together to promote healthy eating habits and provide nutritious food options.Schools can implement policies that limit the availability of unhealthy food choices in cafeterias and vending machines, and instead offer a variety of nutrient-dense options, such as fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Parents can also play a crucial role by ensuring that healthy meals and snacks are available at home, educating children about the importance of balanced nutrition, andinvolving them in meal planning and preparation.In addition to physical activity and dietary habits, other factors, such as genetics, socioeconomic status, and the built environment, can also contribute to childhood obesity. Genetic predisposition may increase an individual's risk of becoming overweight or obese, while socioeconomic factors, such as access to affordable healthy food options and safe outdoor spaces for physical activity, can also influence a child's weight status.To address these broader determinants of childhood obesity, a multifaceted approach is necessary. Policymakers should work to create environments that support healthy behaviors, such as ensuring the availability of affordable, nutritious food options in underserved communities and investing in the development of safe and accessible public spaces for physical activity.Healthcare providers also play a crucial role in the prevention and management of childhood obesity. They can screen for obesity during routine check-ups, provide guidance on healthy lifestyle habits, and refer families to specialized programs or resources for additional support. By working closely with parents and schools, healthcare providers can help identify children at risk of obesity and implement personalized interventions to promote healthy growth and development.Furthermore, the media and social marketing campaigns can be powerful tools in raising awareness and changing societal perceptions about childhood obesity. By depicting healthy lifestyles as the norm and challenging the stigma often associated with obesity, these initiatives can help empower children and families to make positive changes.In conclusion, addressing the complex issue of childhood obesity requires a multifaceted approach that involves collaboration among various stakeholders. By promoting physical activity, encouraging healthy dietary habits, addressing broader determinants of health, and providing comprehensive support and resources, we can work towards creating an environment that fosters the well-being of children and sets them up for a healthier future. Collective action and a sustained commitment to this important issue are essential to effectively combat the rising tide of childhood obesity and ensure that all children have the opportunity to thrive.。

However, I believe that several steps could be followed to improve this situation.There are two main factors that are contributed to children obesity. One is bad eating habits: eating junk foods and drinking sugary soft drinks.

They are overweight, unhealthy and unfit to play or to do any physical exercise. Another devastating effect is that, the higher risk of heart diseases, diabetes and cancer. These diseases put astrain on hospitals and they are going to be a heavy burden in the future.On the other hand, I think there are several measurements can be done by parents, governments and schools. Firstly, giving children healthy food, control what they eat and ensure that they have a healthy diet. For example, the diet that includes more vegetables and less fat contents. Secondly, governments can limit junk food advertisements or prohibit those which are directed to children.
